Overview
- Greenard returned to team practice as a limited participant during the week, appearing in pads for stretching and individual drills on Wednesday and again Thursday while the Eagles placed him on their official injury reports as limited.
- Coaches described his availability as day‑to‑day and said they would evaluate how he handles practice before deciding if he will play in Week 1 against Washington.
- Greenard confirmed he did not need surgery for the pectoral strain, called the injury a “freak” incident, and said he feels good while still stopping short of guaranteeing he will play on Sunday.
- Philadelphia did not put Greenard on the reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list when finalizing the 53‑man roster, preserving his eligibility to play and reflecting the team’s expectation that his return could happen soon.
- The Eagles face a trade‑off: rushing their $98–100 million acquisition risks longer‑term performance problems, so the club plans to rely on internal depth such as Jalyx Hunt, Nolan Smith Jr., A.J. Epenesa, and Arnold Ebiketie if Greenard is held out.
